Julio León (politician)
Julio León Heredia is a Venezuelan politician who served as the governor of Yaracuy from 2008 to 2025. He was the PSUV candidate for the 2008 Venezuelan regional elections, and won comfortably. He succeeded Álex Sánchez, an interim governor appointed after Carlos E. Giménez was impeached in June 2008 by the Supreme Tribunal of Justice.
León's career in the Venezuelan air force was cut short when León participated in the November 1992 coup attempt against Carlos Andrés Pérez.
